Sites inaccessible because of Circle since last firmware

Is this the post they deleted?

Same issue here. Took me way too long to troubleshoot. I have tried numerous things. I have done a factory reset on both router and satellite, even tried going back to an older version of firmware. I have tired comcast dns, google dns, open dns, then new dns from cloudfare all behave the same. Factory reset was a pain because not only did I have to reset Orbi WIFI, I had to also reset my entire Circle setup in app. I lost all the Circle profiles and custom filters, rules I had setup for our kids. This issue impacts several sites I use on a daily base, and my kids have let me know that it also impacts voice chat sites (such as Discord) that they use with their friends when playing online games. So at this point I have reset, restarted, re-installed everything I can and "no joy". Numerous sites will not load and say "resolving host". As soon as I disable Circle, the sites resolve and resolve very quickly.



Oh yea, in another bit of irony: often the "Orbilogin.com" will not resolve with Circle enabled, so I have had to use the Orbi IP address to access the admin to disable Circle.



I have recommended (and they have purchased) Orbi systems to numereous friends and family. I even drove with my Uncle to Best Buy to buy Orbi and then installed it for him. He called me recently, and I was his "tech support" for an hour on the phone becuase he was having an issue after a forced firmware update.



I have been very pleased with Orbi..... up until recent firmware updates and then this issue with Circle.
